Chapter 236 Planning a new album

Wang Zhengfei wrote the song "Lan Ruo Ci" on the spot and sang it to Dan Vo a few times. Dan Vo was able to sing it in a decent way. Then Wang Zhengfei recorded a demo for Dan Vo, and then let Dan Vo

Waiwai is looking for someone to come up with the accompaniment and arrangement of this song, and then let Dan Vo sing it. The title song of this album has already been decided.

When everything was done, Wang Zhengfei looked at the time and it was already ** o'clock in the evening. He originally wanted to have a romantic trip with Dan Vo, but after calculating the time, he forgot it. After all, he had to shoot the next day, but okay.

Dan Vo was also very supportive of his work. The two of them had a quick bite and Wang Zhengfei went back to the hotel where the crew was staying.

After returning to the room, he took a shower and changed his clothes. Wang Zhengfei, who was getting ready to go to bed, happened to remember what Gao Yan had told him before to go find him when he came back. It seemed that she had something else to explain.

Wang Zhengfei changed his clothes, rushed to Gao Yan's room, and knocked on the door.

"Knock knock knock!"

"Come in!" Gao Yan's voice came from inside.

Wang Zhengfei pushed the door open and saw Gao Yan typing on the computer keyboard, not knowing what he was writing.

"What are you writing?" Wang Zhengfei asked.

"I'm writing a project, please sit down for a while!" Gao Yan said.

"Oh!" Wang Zhengfei sat down without being polite. He turned on the TV and watched it for himself. After a while, Gao Yan finally finished it. He turned around, sat on the chair and said to Wang Zhengfei: "Zhengfei, this time

I called you here mainly for a few things!"

"The first thing is about your album release. The last time you released an album was a year ago, right?" Gao Yan asked.

Wang Zhengfei nodded. Calculating the time, it was indeed almost a year ago. At that time, he released his first album, and the album sold well all over Asia.

"About that, it was about a year ago. Time flies so fast. A year has passed in such a blink of an eye!" Wang Zhengfei said with a sigh, as if he was still celebrating the New Year before, but now the New Year has arrived.

The more there are.

"Yes, it goes by very quickly. Generally speaking, releasing an album once a year is a more appropriate frequency. Now that you have passed a year, it's time to consider a second album!" Gao Yan said.

"That's true, but I'm busy filming "Qin Shi Mingyue" right now. How can I have time to work on that album?" Wang Zhengfei said.

"The filming of "Qin Shi Mingyue" will not waste much time. "Qin Shi Mingyue" has been filmed for most of the time. It can be filmed until the end of November at most. By then, you can use your spare time to complete the new album.

Made!" Gao Yan said.

Wang Zhengfei calculated that the time is indeed almost the same. The crew is basically uncertain about shooting, but generally we can guess the approximate completion date. The end of November is definitely no problem, or even faster, it can be in mid-to-late November.

Just finished it, but if he has to finish the new album immediately, the time may be a little tight, especially if the album is to be released this Christmas, it will definitely not be an easy task, which is why he can

Completion, when most people still have to write a song, there is no time. A song has to be brewed for a long time. Only a guy like Wang Zhengfei, who does not regard good songs as good songs, can grit his teeth and finish it.

"Okay, by Christmas, although time is a little tight, I think I can still hand over ten songs!" Wang Zhengfei said.

Wang Zhengfei's words shocked Gao Yan. He had never thought that Wang Zhengfei would be so tough. It would only take a little more than a month until Christmas, plus the time for recording and burning discs. In other words,

The time left for Wang Zhengfei was quite limited. He never thought that Wang Zhengfei would be able to complete it. In other words, he never thought that Wang Zhengfei could hand over so many songs in such a short period of time. He had even started collecting songs for him.

When the time came, Wang Zhengfei only needed to hand over one or two songs as the main hits, and an album would be ready. But he didn’t expect that Wang Zhengfei misunderstood his words and actually had to hand over ten songs himself. Although he was not a singer, he knew that this was very difficult.

.

"In this case, will time be very tight?" Gao Yan asked. If he was asked to choose to hand over ten average songs or ten bad songs in a short period of time, it would be better to let him choose.

Wang Zhengfei can produce one or two good songs, as long as they can reach the average level of his previous album. No matter which song from Wang Zhengfei's previous album is placed in other people's albums, it can be used as the title song.

Only here can Wang Zhengfei see this rare spectacle.

"Tight, it's okay!" Wang Zhengfei said carelessly. Anyway, he could have as many of these songs as he wanted, so he didn't have to worry about not having enough. At least before 2011, he didn't have to worry about any shortage. "Ten

The song is pretty good, no problem!”

Gao Yan was speechless and had to say: "That's up to you, but you can't just hand over ten bad songs!"

"Don't worry, although it won't reach the level of the previous album, it will definitely be a first-class song!" Wang Zhengfei said.

This is not a difficult thing for him, he believes that he can do it.

"But who should we cooperate with this time? Huayan International?" Wang Zhengfei asked.

"I think we can do it ourselves this time!" Gao Yan said.

"Do it yourself?" Wang Zhengfei said.

"Yes, instead of letting others earn this money, it is better for us to make it ourselves!" Gao Yan said, "When the time comes, I want to have a subsidiary company under the name of Xingchen Entertainment, Xingchen Records, alongside Xingchen Printing!"

Gao Yan said that there is a sense of high-spiritedness here. If it can be established, it means that his entertainment empire has been initially established. It is basically set up and he has the ability to get involved in film, television, music and music.

Xingchen Records is responsible for music, and Xingchen Printing is responsible for film and television. The preliminary structure of a film and television empire has been completed.

If we talk about what is the most profitable thing in the entertainment industry, many people will first think of movies. If you think about it, you will know that the box office can easily reach hundreds of millions. How can it not be profitable? After excluding the cost, it is tens of millions. But in fact, records

Well, in fact, records are even more coveted. Think about it, last time Wang Zhengfei took away a total of 40 million after tax in dividends, and Huayan International was just about the same. In total, it was actually 80 million.

The after-tax profit, although the cost is not included, but even if it is the cost, how much money can there be.

According to the calculation of making a movie, if there is a profit of 80 million, the box office must be more than 160 million. Even if peripheral products are included, the box office must be more than 110 million or 20 million.

How much does it cost to invest in a movie that can have this level of box office? Tens of millions is the minimum, but how much does it cost to release an album? Although Huayan International did not say that, it does not mean that Gao Yan has everything.

I don’t know, the total cost is 10 million or at most 15 million. For a movie maker, this is only a fraction. It is definitely a low-cost and high-income investment.

As long as you invest a little bit, you can earn so much, how can you not be jealous, but there is no point in being jealous, because it is difficult to cross this threshold, and there is a possibility of failure, and the current record market is not strong, Wang Zhengfei is so good

Achievements can only be said to be a very rare phenomenon. In fact, most people still make losses. For most companies, every album released by one person is a risk. In this era, it can sell more than five albums.

One hundred thousand copies, the company will celebrate grandly, more than one million copies, that is the achievement of a first-line singer, two million copies, it is definitely a king-level result, and Wang Zhengfei's result of 3.5 million copies

I can only call him a monster. Not everyone can have the strength of Wang Zhengfei.

But even though he said that, Gao Yan still has great confidence in Wang Zhengfei. It may be very difficult for others to achieve, but he believes in Wang Zhengfei's talent. After all, there have been two albums that have proven Wang Zhengfei's talent. Basically, in

In his opinion, he is talented, so in his opinion, there is no risk in helping Wang Zhengfei release this album. The only thing that can be discussed is the issue of making more or less. For a record company, it can find

How difficult it is for an artist who never loses money but only makes money!

Therefore, Gao Yan naturally wants to maximize Wang Zhengfei's role!

"So for this company, should we buy an old company or re-establish a company ourselves?" Wang Zhengfei asked. In fact, both options have their own advantages. Although buying an old company will be more expensive,

But even more rare is the network of relationships this old company has, which can save Star Records from making many detours, especially the many sales channels, which is something Star Entertainment lacks, but a new company also has its advantages.

, the new company does not need to spend so much money, and you can buy brand new equipment and other equipment without having to consider the old equipment. You can buy the world's top equipment as soon as you start, and you don't need to consider the various equipment left over from the old company.

problems, and debt and things like that.

"Of course it is to buy an old company!" Gao Yan said firmly, "Although the old company still has many problems, we can save a lot of time in building relationships and sales channels. These are what we lack, but

If we can have the channels of the old company, we can make up for it completely at once. Besides, it is not a problem of money now, and everything that money can solve is not a problem!"
